About the Author
Bill Martin Jr, a former elementary-school principal and now a teacher, writer, and poet, holds a doctoral degree in early-childhood education. His many books-among them the bestselling classics
Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See?;
Polar Bear, Polar Bear, What Do You Hear?; and
Chicka Chicka Boom Boom-are a testament to his ability to speak directly to children. Born and raised in Kansas, Mr. Martin now makes his home in Texas.
Eric Carle was born in the United States, but spent his early years in Stuttgart, Germany. His many innovative books have earned him a place in the canon of classic children's literature. Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See? was the first book he illustrated; he then went on to write and illustrate The Very Hungry Caterpillar and The Grouchy Ladybug, as well as many other books for children. Mr. Carle works in a studio near his home in western Massachusetts.
